UH will have a series of Shabbat Lunch ‘n’ Learns throughout the new year focusing on a different topic referencing our theme of “proclaim liberty throughout the land.” Our job as Jews, is to proclaim this message of liberty and to stand for liberty and dignity for all. In order to do this, we must learn and discuss what Judaism says about liberty and we must confront the realities of continued oppression in our world, in all forms, and dedicate ourselves to not only proclaiming, but pursuing liberty for all.

The January 16 program will focus on “Civil Discourse.” We will discuss the issue and experiment how we speak to each other when we disagree.

There is no cost to attend. RSVP to Tara Mann in the clergy office at 314-469-0700 so that we know how many people to expect for lunch.
